‘Twas but my tongue, not my soul that swore.

Actual quotes from one of the better shows on televison:
“Every day takes figuring out all over again how to fuckin’ live.”
–Joanie Stubbs
–Joanie Stubbs
“Announcing your plans is a good way to hear God laugh.”
“The world does not end because you are in despair. Until you are dead, there is more punishment in store. Take it like a man and give some back.”
–Al Swearengen

There’s a taste of caged anger in the air. Is it Hearst‘s mad desires for “the color” that’s destroying all the decent people in an admittedly undecent town? I can not say. I only know it’s gonna be a Deadwood day.
